    Ive struggled with committing to men for yrs & all this time I thought I was just crazy.😢 I was diagnosed with pcos & its completely destroyed my life💔💔💔💔 most days I want to die. I've gained more than 100 lbs in a yr..
    people shouldn't brush this illness off & should actually research this & be supportive of the women that are affected by it.
    I still want to die but I have God. Everything will be ok in the end

    Pcos doesnt always include ovarian cysts . Cysts can be a driving factor for pcos but a lot of the time it isnt. Chronic stress or insulin resistance can be the driving factor. All of these three drive testosterone , inflammation and hormone dysregulation. There are also nstural suppliments , diet , therapy and exercise that can help . Most women find Metformin creates too many issues . I personally found Metformin was not an option for me as it made me house bound with severe vertigo and feeling drowsy and drunk ehich apparently are uncommon symptoms. Common symptoms are
    Abdominal or stomach discomfort
    cough or hoarseness
    decreased appetite
    diarrhea
    fast or shallow breathing
    fever or chills
    general feeling of discomfort
    lower back or side pain
    muscle pain or cramping
    painful or difficult urination
    sleepiness
    There are better options to help with symptoms such as myo and d chiro 40-1 this helps with period regularity, fertility and mood. Berberine helps with blood sugar and Tumeric and Curcumin suppliments decreases inflammation helping with period pain , achy joints, psoriasis and arthritis . Take a good multi vitamin or more specifically magnesium, vitamin d3 and viramin b complex . Obviously you want to slso get a low impact exercise routine such as pikates, barre , yoga , walking low impact hiit and weight lifting which helps with blood sugar, inflammation and mood. And eat only whole foods and centre your meals on high protein 30g a meal and lots of vegetables

      @@Mel-H no it's not , determining PCOS is through symptoms not if you have cysts or extra follicles. For instance I do have imbalanced FSH and LH ratios but my ovaries are perfectly healthy . I have had all the tests and appointments. This is why the name PCOS is being discussed because it's an old misunderstanding that all women with PCOS have cysts

      @@littleone1656 they do tests to see how high testosterone is , to see if estrogen/progesterone is high or low and to test hb1ac . They test these to see if it could be anything else and to see how they can help you , not to diagnose you. You do not need to have "high" testosterone or differences in other hormones or have diabetes to have PCOS . Not all women with PCOS have blood sugar issues and not all blood sugar issues cause high hb1ac . Not all PCOS women have issues with estrogen or progesterone. Not all women have what is classed as "high" testosterone. You can have symptoms of "high" testosterone and yet tests can show you are in "normal" range , this is because we are all individuals and what maybe genetically normal for one woman may not be normal for another. Normal ranges are created through finding a mean average range and that average range changes depending on genetics , diet and environment .

      Metabolic syndrome. There are similar features (e.g. balding, weight problems, cardiovascular risks, glucose control, etc.). So it's hypothesised that there might be a male PCOS phenotype (and daughters can inherit symptoms). However, a difference is that in the case of PCOS females experience a surge of androgens, whereas most male patients with similar symptom expressions actually complain of a too low testosterone level. It's an interesting feature.

    What does committing in a relationship have to do with PCOS?

    • @ryleereynolds5710
      @ryleereynolds5710 Рік тому +41

      I’m guessing hormonal issues cause lack of commitment because their hormones are out of whack and it makes them act all funky. I have PCOS and there was a point in time where I would break up with my boyfriend a couple times a month. We’ve been together for four years. I don’t act that way anymore but I would literally start fights with him for no reason at all and would just break up with him and then call him crying the next day. Until one point he said “is it always going to be like this? Are you going to treat me this way for the next 30 years?” And something clicked because my parents are still together after 30 something years and their relationship was always back and forth and still is and I was like I don’t want that for myself. Especially because I have this great guy who doesn’t deserve the ways I was treating him. And my doctor told me to take birth control which made me even worse. It was like a bandaid to my problem. I was feeling all the emotions and pms of a period but was not getting a period on birth control. On BC I was a NUT! I screamed at everyone over everything. It made me have thoughts of offing myself. I’m not excusing my behavior but I’m now wondering if my actions and behavior were due to hormonal imbalances. I still have issues. As of recently I can’t sleep at night, get night sweats, and I have really bad panic attacks and dissociation issues that were making it hard to work at my new job until the point I had to go to the ER and my boss fired me for going. Idk if PCOS causes any of this but ever since I turned 18 my life has been up and down and an emotional roller coaster and I’ve gained 60 pounds in 4 years.
